Virgin Tattoo Studio
This is a Contemporary Art and Tattoo Studio created initially by Mauricio Esquivel, Alexander Esquivel, and Virginia Cortéz. Later, Jeovany Alvarado was joined the team. Today we are counting on the contribution of Vladimir Esquivel.
In Situ was the basis of Virgin Tattoo Studio, a cultural space created by Mauricio Esquivel and Jaime Izaguirre in 2003, in alliance with the Spain Cultural Center in order to work in cultural management providing curatorial and tutoring services for Plastic Art students with the purpose of create medium-term projects that link different disciplines of Visual Arts, specifically the Illustration and the Contemporary Art. Furthermore, Virgin Tattoo Studio supports the production of small projects at the request of artists based on the availability of resources.

The Fire Theory
Because Mauricio Esquivel, the coordinator of the cultural management has moved to New York, Virgin works hand in hand with this curatorial team organizing visits to other studios, mostly of the Contemporary art program Y.
